A wide range of health conditions can be investigated using in vitro diagnostic (IVD) testing. From infectious diseases and gastrointestinal infections to cardiovascular conditions, inflammation and women's health, diagnostic testing can help healthcare professionals identify diseases, detect biomarkers and support clinical decision-making. Biopanda develops and manufactures rapid diagnostic tests and fluorescence immunoassays designed to assist healthcare professionals in the diagnosis, assessment and monitoring of a range of health conditions. Explore the health conditions below to learn more about their causes, symptoms and diagnosis, and discover the relevant Biopanda diagnostic tests available for each clinical area.

Cancer is a group of diseases characterised by the uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells. Biomarkers can play an important role in the investigation and monitoring of certain cancers. Learn more about cancer and Biopanda diagnostic tests for relevant tumour markers.
Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition in which consuming gluten triggers an immune response that can damage the small intestine. Learn about celiac disease and antibody tests that can assist healthcare professionals in its investigation.
Chest pain can have many causes, ranging from minor conditions to serious cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction. Learn about the causes of chest pain and diagnostic testing for cardiac biomarkers including Troponin, CK-MB, Myoglobin and H-FABP.
Gastrointestinal infections can be caused by viral, bacterial and parasitic pathogens and commonly result in symptoms such as diarrhoea and vomiting. Learn about gastrointestinal infections and rapid diagnostic tests for pathogens including Norovirus, Rotavirus, C. difficile, Giardia, Shigella, and Salmonella.
Inflammation is part of the body's natural response to infection, injury and disease, but persistent or excessive inflammation can be associated with numerous medical conditions. Learn about inflammation and diagnostic testing for biomarkers including C-Reactive Protein (CRP), Procalcitonin (PCT) and Serum Amyloid A (SAA).
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) includes chronic inflammatory conditions such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Learn about IBD and diagnostic testing for gastrointestinal inflammatory markers including faecal Calprotectin and Lactoferrin.
Iron is essential for many functions in the body, including the production of haemoglobin. Abnormally low or high iron stores can be associated with a range of health conditions. Learn about iron status and the use of Ferritin as a diagnostic biomarker.
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occurs when a blood clot develops in a deep vein, while a pulmonary embolism can occur if a clot travels to the lungs. Learn about these conditions and the role of D-dimer testing in supporting clinical assessment.
Respiratory infections affect the respiratory tract and may be caused by viral or bacterial pathogens. Explore respiratory infections and diagnostic tests for pathogens including Influenza A and B, RSV, COVID-19, HMPV and other respiratory infections.
Sepsis is a serious and potentially life-threatening response to infection that requires prompt medical assessment and treatment. Learn more about sepsis and diagnostic biomarkers such as Procalcitonin (PCT) and C-Reactive Protein (CRP) that can support clinical evaluation.
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are infections primarily transmitted through sexual contact and may be caused by bacteria, viruses or parasites. Learn about STIs and rapid diagnostic testing for infections including HIV, Syphilis, Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea.
A sore throat is a common symptom that can have viral or bacterial causes. While many cases resolve without treatment, identifying certain infections can help guide appropriate clinical management. Learn about sore throat and rapid diagnostic tests for infections such as Group A Streptococcus.
Substance use disorder is a condition involving the continued use of drugs despite harmful consequences. Drug screening can detect drugs or their metabolites in biological specimens and may be used in healthcare, rehabilitation and other professional settings.
Tropical diseases include a diverse group of infections caused by parasites, viruses and bacteria, with many transmitted through insect vectors, contaminated food or water. Learn about tropical diseases and rapid diagnostic tests for infections including Malaria, Dengue, Chikungunya, Chagas disease and Zika virus.
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are infections affecting parts of the urinary system, most commonly caused by bacteria. Learn about urinary tract infections and diagnostic testing that can assist healthcare professionals in their investigation.
Women's health encompasses a broad range of reproductive, hormonal and other health conditions throughout different stages of life. Explore women's health and diagnostic testing related to pregnancy, fertility, hormones and other clinical applications.
